digitalmars.D - Re: Const sucks

I want to be able to *express the idea* that the value I am declaring
shall never change. To my mind:
const int NUM_DAYS_IN_WEEK = 7;
successfully expresses that idea, and frankly, I whether or not
NUM_DAYS_IN_WEEK consumes memory should not be my call. That is an
implementation detail, and should be the compiler's problem, not mine.
